Proceeding contribution from Stephen Crabb (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 4 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on Police Grant Report.


Police Grant Report

The hon. Gentleman is making an important point about custody suites. We have a new all-singing, all-dancing custody suite in the Pembrokeshire division. However, officers have raised with me concerns similar to the hon. Gentleman's point, about how making arrests in different parts of the area now ties up an awful lot of police time. One of those concerns is that the new custody suite might create a disincentive to bringing into custody people who would previously have been taken into custody closer to where the offences were committed.
